Green Goddess Antihistamine & Anti-inflammatory Juice

This histamine-lowering quercetin rich juice appears in the Anti-Cookbook: High Nutrient Antihistamine & Anti-inflammatory Recipes for Health.

You know how you take antihistamines for allergies? Well antihistamines are found in food too; especially in brightly coloured and leafy green ones (sorry, nope, not M&Ms). Having given up antihistamines last year, my focus has shifted to eating them!

Benefits of this juice:

Apples are rich in histamine lowering quercetin and inhibit the development of allergies [1].

Spirulina inhibits histamine release from mast cells and possess anti-inflammatory and cancer fighting properties [2]. Particularly effective for allergic rhinitis [3] (also known as a stuffy nose!).

Chlorella is an antihistamine that works by preventing mast cells from releasing histamine [4].

Broccoli prevents cancer [5] and gastric mucosal damage [6].

Cucumber meanwhile is a natural pain killer and an antioxidant. Worried about thinning hair? Cucumber also prevents the body from making the highly inflammatory molecule prostaglandin [7] which (as I’ve previously posted) has been implicated in hair loss [8].

I recently started juicing and it has made a big difference. I had made a mistake (had a glass of wine, thinking it wouldn’t hurt so much after abstaining for so long) and then my face started breaking out the next day and the intense fatigue came back, but… I then made some juice (apples, carrots, and cabbage) and voila… my face is healing rather quickly and I have energy again. I haven’t tried adding broccoli and cucumber yet but going to give it a try. Thanks for posting this! 🙂

I make a similar juice that immediately calms things down: apple, celery, cucumber, ginger and a tiny bit of lemon. Sorry, I just have to know, does anyone experience nausea (kind of right side pain nausea) with histamine overload? Also, with histamine overload, do you find you can’t stand being around strong smells (particularly chemical ones, such as cigarette smoke, cleaning products…even natural ones). This is all new to me. I only recently connected the dots as to why I have been feeling so terrible and made the connection to histamine foods. Are glutamate foods bad for histamine food chemical intolerant people as well? Feel so overwhelmed and just want my life back. Hoping I can find a doctor that can recognize this as a true food chemical intolerance that causes such debilitating symptoms and get some help. Fiona, some people just aren’t good with green powders…I have read they can stimulate the immune system in sensitive people. Thank you to those for reading.
